Races close on Mondays at 9PM EST! Our Next Sale Begins: January Y22.
02/05/23 We're almost ready to kick off the New Year here at Final Furlong! The New Years Sale is still OPEN for bids - lots of ponies needing homes! As well, we're hoping to close January Week One races by MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6. However, if we need to extend closing date so more people can get entered, just let us know in the Discord. In addition to getting your pages ready, don't forget to use your bonus points if you'd like!
01/29/23 Congratulations to KENREN for winning the Y21 Breeders' Cup Betting Contest! You've won a breeding reserve to FIFTY DREAMS (Firestone Stud) and 2x 2 furlong extensions + 5 bonus horse points! Lolly finished 2nd, and Cruisey finished 3rd.
12/08/22 The Breeder's Cup Betting Contest will make a return for Y21!!! It'll be a little bit different because of the new points system, but get ready for some end of year fun 😄
11/21/22 Entries for the New Year Sale are now open! We know it seems a bit early, but with life things we're going to need time to make sure things are right lol. Please follow the link here: https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2304/y22-new-year-sale
08/20/22 Judging has been the basis for issues for a long time - taking too long, drama regarding results, bias, etc. Kenren has attempted to put a points system together that keeps the spirit of our system while streamlining and standardizing the process. It's a lot to take in, but once you get in the swing of it, preparing pages with these points takes way less time than doing a layout change lol! If you have any questions, please post them in the judging-help channel on Discord for now. If anyone needs help with anything, please let an admin know! We would like to give everyone one week to get things settled, and then we would like to run July Wk 2 using this system closing 8/27/22 (or earlier if everyone is ready). If it works out, we would like to run two game weeks per RL week to get things moving! Thank you all so much for being her!e
07/27/22 To start July off fresh, we've been playing around with a new theme for Final Furlong! Make sure to check out 'Sonorous' under your profile ❤️ Feel free to use whatever theme works best for yourself. We can't wait to get back to racing!
07/21/22 it's official! We're back! It looks like June Wk 4 was almost fully judged, so make sure you get that updated if you hadn't! We will plan to close the next week (July Wk 1) on Thursday, August 4th. This close day may change, but it's not a bad place to start! For now we'll be doing one game week per RL week to get back into things. Please remember that starting the second half of the year, 3yos can compete against older horses without automatic lower placements.
As an aside, because this is fairly sudden after a whole year, we will not be allowing reclaims on horses for members not currently active for a few months. We will readdress this going forward if needed. Thank you all for understanding!
07/08/22 GO answer the poll ❤️ https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2232/ff-restart-poll

WIN Pele's Wrath (nose) place Hysteria show Animatia 4th Miss Magic 5th Lawless 6th Luminous Wave 7th Winning Fire 8th Rough Diamond
Firstly, whhhy. Secondly, why are all of these horses amazing? Finally, don't let any of the placings get you down because each and every one of you know that these horses are top-of-the-line no matter how they ran this race today. ANYWAY, Hysteria was at home at the mile and a half distance and she set a very fast pace for this race. Saying that last year's miler of the year brought out the sprinter in her rivals today is an understatement. Pele's Wrath did not hold back towards the halfway mark and pushed Hysteria as much as she could and overtook her just as the mare was about to cross the wire. Pele proved just how deadly she could be when pushed up against the wall.
Animatia is almost similar to her stablemate in terms of consistency and experience. With this large field Animatia flip-flopped between racing styles trying to figure out the best way to take the field today. Nevertheless she finally settled into the fast pace that Hysteria had set and tried to overtake Hysteria going into the homestretch before she too was usurped by Pele. Miss Magic broke late and settled at the back of the pack with Lawless for a good portion of the race. Luminous Wave challenged these two and moved ahead to try and pass up Pele's Wrath, Pele said 'nope' and maintained her position in second throughout the race. Miss Magic gathered herself finally and started to try and make a move for lead but Animatia and Hysteria refused to let her in.
Rough Diamond fought hard against all of these fillies but the sheer size of the field (and the high competitiveness of some of these ladies) seemed to put this girl off so she spent more time fighting her rivals then pacing herself. She's a solid girl in HOTY but this field was a train-wreck of all walks of HOTY champions today. Saying it was cutthroat would be an understatement.
M. Pope Maiden - M - 9F - D - 2yo WIN Jersey Glory PLACE Mr. Smooth SHOW The Fallen Jester fourth Cactus Crunch
Jersey Glory had everything her way on the lead today, and she finally got that breakthrough. Mr Smooth improved his standing, and it's only a matter of time before he's gotten that maiden win. Cactus Crunch ran a little green in his first start, but he'll improve with time. Unrelated to his placing, but you might want to add a section to his personality about how he runs during a race. If you need inspiration, take a look at a few different horses :) It can help give them a little boost in certain situations.
WIN Wild Annie place Belladonna show Passionist 4th Classy Lady 5th Enough Said
A strong performance was given by Wild Annie today as she led the field from wire to wire, finishing at a lead of five lengths ahead of Belladonna. Passionist was tailed Wild Annie and tried to keep up with the insanely fast pace she set today for the Ringo Stakes but eventually started to fade when going into the homestretch giving Belladonna all the time she needed to edge him out. Classy Lady was hard pressed behind this close-knit field and started to shift gears with a powerful closing kick but the pace Wild Annie set today was unbeatable today. Enough Said also wanted to to rise to the challenge but started fading fast with Classy Lady blocking the way for him. The bottom two are great horses, Lady is more than comfortable in HOTY company while Enough Said is on the right track by getting some experience against such a tough field.
